Double attack on prostate cancer spread: targeted radiation plus Bone-Seeking drug tested

NCT ID NCT04037358

Summary

This study tested whether adding a bone-targeting radioactive drug (Radium-223) to precise, high-dose radiation (SABR) works better than radiation alone for men whose prostate cancer has spread to a few spots, including at least one in bone. The goal was to see if this combined approach could keep the cancer from growing or spreading longer. Researchers compared the two treatments in 64 men to measure how long they remained progression-free.
